You both have a point there. That "marketing ploy" comment was stupid to make. Now can we talk about the reissue?

Sure.

If it really is $250 then that is a stupid amount of money. It'd have to come up with some bloody AMAZING features.

If it's over $100, i'll tell my wife to nevermind. Don't want to pay that much for an album i already have.

And as to the "if it's not on the cd, there's a reason for it" comment -- i own a handful of these extra songs as b-sides of cd singles, and some of them are just as good as some of the other stuff on mellon collie. Even the "song" which amalgamates a bunch of billy corgan guitar jams altogether is enlightening for how many good riffs went unused. This guy was on a creative tear between Siamese Dream and this double-disc.

But yeah, $250? No way. It's my 2nd favorite album of all-time, but there are a lot better uses for $250 out there.

I won't quote all the people, but yeah. It's rumoured to be $250 in Canada. Maybe not the states. The CONFIRMED price in the UK is 192 pounds. Which, I actually think equals about $350 in the USA or something (not sure).

Either way, the original disc in Canada is about $40 Laughing

There's a whole bunch of extra cut tracks and alternative takes....And some other stuff.

I honestly don't see the point of buying it Neutral I do like the new album art though.

The Siamese Dream reissue wasn't HALF that expensive. I got it at Rotate This or Sonic Boom for, like, $35.

I'm thinking of painting one of my walls like it.

That is sick.


Reissues are cool,why all the beef.Would there be any other way for all this unreleased and never heard music to be released apart from in a new reissue,apart from free via the internet(Billy's gotta eat y'all).Fans will truly cherish this reissue and will be able to better understand the album as they will be more capable of seeing the progression of sound and structure of the songs that finally made the cut.If I was a big SP's fan I'd be hyped.
